Color scanning
A 3D model appears in the center of the window when the scanning process starts.
The colored frame outlines the scanner's field of view with the color indicating the current capture quality.
When the frame is:
•
Green
- the capture is optimal.
•
Yellow
- the capture is less than optimal e.g., due to the scanner being moved too fast.
•
Red
- there is no capture at all.
The images below illustrate possible colors of the rectangle during scanning:
